QR Code Link to This Post
Used with the standard M1917 155mm Howitzer, the French-designed Canon de 155 C model 1917 Schneider. The telescope was used to aim the canon properly in various conditions.
It has clear optics, with an intact crosshair reticle, and all four selectable filters are still present and functional: RED CLEAR NEUTRAL & AMBER. This allows for accurate sighting during both the day and night.
The focus on the eyepiece still works great, and the original rubber eyepiece hood is still intact and is still relatively soft and pliable. Original hold-down bolts included.
There is an attachment for an electrical cable for the internal light.
The manufacturer tag is Minneapolis Honeywell Reg. Co. 1943.
An interesting piece of U.S. optical equipment, ready to add to your military collection!
PLEASE CALL Four80-641-294three, EMAIL OR TEXT FOR LOCATION AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IF NEEDED.
